SoftCell: Wonderwarer Acquires Minority Interest in Two Distributors To Strengthen Channel, Facilitate High-Level Software Sales
Addition to a post from me some days ago:
<<YES YES YES!! Wonderware partner's training session - also about y2k! This is the thing I was looking for the whole evening (past 6 posts)! softcell.com; go to 'whats is new', factory suite 2000 >>
So Wonderware now owns a minority in this distributor that also presents TAVA product in their FactorySuite presentations. Guess they must have confidence in this distributor.
